Slot cars - Sort of on subject

[mishko]

Hello all.

I am a newbie, and i was just wondering if anyone could help me, please. I want to make some slot cars, well, slot car body shells in resin, to fit on Tomy slot car chassis, but dont know anything about resin casting, let alone modelling. I have VERY limited experience with models, made a few in my time, and destroyed most as well, as a kid.

I want to build cars that were never made into slot cars, Australian based cars, and some Japanese cars, that i like.

OK, so that is some background info, where to begin.

Anyone know of any resin casting sites that could help me in resin casting? I will pretend i am a moron ( well, maybe i dont have to pretend) , so i need simple sites to explain resin casting in simple english.

Also need some sites as to how to carve/shape those particular body shells.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Mishko

PS: Re link to rarest kits? Any kit that lasted more than 2 months in my house was a RARE kit.

PPS: I plan to buy some models soon, just to see if i can improve THAT side of my free time. Now, where do i find old school corollas

Do a search on Google for;

"Resin casting"
"Two part silicone molds"
"How to make molds"

See what you find and go from there.
